All I want to do these days is walk to Stella’s Station for ice cream (Moose Tracks – 2 scoops with whipped cream)….. This week, I’ve been better at not indulging too much, but it hasn’t been easy. Missing that ice cream! I’m worried because I haven’t been working out at the gym as long as in the past. I think I go just for the socialization, but even that seems to be waning. My endurance is way down. I try going everyday, but I get so tired after 30 minutes, not enough to burn the extra calories. I can’t seem to make it to Zumba and the spinning class is still too intimidating. Why do they turn off those lights? I’m hoping that all of my busy summer outdoor activities coupled with chasing a lively toddler will help prevent me from gaining the extra ice cream weight. But I can’t get Moosetracks out of my mind on those hot days….What’s your favorite flavor?
Other than ice cream, another favorite treat is hot peanut butter and jelly sandwiches eaten at the beach. Something about how it gets squished in the beach bag along with the heat that makes them soooo delectable. So yes, we spent another morning at the lake. This time, we spent more time in the water than on the swings, a big plus for me. However, Alan was Mr. No-Nap today – you would think he would have fallen into a deep slumber with all that swimming, but he didn’t….which made dinner at Portia and Louis’s a little challenging. He escaped out her front door, and I went into a panic. He was in her back yard playing with the rocks. He probably was only out there for 20 seconds on his own, but it was scary none-the-less.
Tomorrow is my visit with my college roommate, Helen. We haven’t seen each other in about 11 years. I am very excited to see her!!!!
